We're educating our campus communities about the Bhopal disaster,
challenging Dow's relationship with our institutions of learning,
threatening Dow's ability to recruit college graduates, organizing
campaigns for divestment, undermining Dow's reputation and targeting
Dow directly by protesting the company and its Board of Directors.
We're demanding JUSTICE - and today we represent the largest student
movement against Dow in a generation.

This Student Declaration to Dow was issued on May 5th, 2005, and
was presented to Dow at their Shareholder Meeting. “We are
outraged,” the students write. “We believe the fact
that Dow-Carbide has not acted to stop the ongoing contamination
of tens of thousands - for which it is responsible - is inhumane,
unjust, and immoral.”

Share the Struggle

Read the three-part (one/two/three)
conversation between Paul Damore, who grew up in the shadow of Dow's
polluting headquarters in Michigan, and Tahira "Ruby"
Sultan, who survived the Bhopal gas disaster and has lived in the
shadow of Carbide's abandoned factory ever since. "On different
continents in two very different communities, Paul and Ruby are
battling Dow Chemical's refusal to take responsibility for its legacy
of pollution, shady dealings and disregard for human life."
The series was also profiled in the Hindustan
Times.

The international student campaign to hold Dow
accountable for Bhopal, and its other toxic legacies around the world.

WE
ALL LIVE IN
BHOPAL

"The year 2003 was a special
year in the history of the campaign for justice in Bhopal. It was the
year when student and youth supporters from at least 30 campuses in the
US and India took action against Dow Chemical or in support of the demands
of the Bhopal survivors. As we enter the 20th year of the unfolding Bhopal
disaster, we can, with your support, convey to Dow Chemical that the fight
for justice in Bhopal is getting stronger and will continue till justice
is done. We look forward to your continued support and good wishes, and
hope that our joint struggle will pave the way for a just world free of
the abuse of corporate power."
